John McCain caught playing online poker

Sep 5, 2013

US Senator John McCain was caught by a Washington Post photographer playing online poker in his iPhone during a senate hearing about military intervention in Syria. He was playing during the Senate Foreign Relations meeting held on Tuesday which included hearings from other notables like Secretary of State John Kerry or Defence Secretary Chuck Hagel.

John McCain basically just laughed and shrug off the whole incident and tweeted: "Scandal! Caught playing iPhone game at 3+ hour Senate hearing - worst of all I lost!" The image of McCain playing poker has been shared on media, social and news outlets all around the world.
